Scene: Coco shoving a stuffed animal in Zuzu's face.
Zuzu: Coco! The bunny doesn't toot in people's faces! That's RUDE!

Scene: Coco wonders aloud if she'll be put in a group with her best friend for the upcoming preschool field trip.
Backstory: She recently bit her best friend on the arm because E sat next to the teacher during story time and Coco wanted to sit there and E would not scoot over. We talked a lot about how we only bite food.
Coco: We can't sit together because we bit together. And we are not food!
Zuzu: (matter-of-factly) But we are made out of meat.

Scene: Driving to school. Contemplating the moon that is still visible in the sky even though the sun is up.
Zuzu: The moon is actually in space.
Coco: I don't like space because it's a long way to fall.

Scene: Looking through a Disney princess cookbook Zuzu checked out from the library (she's really into the nonfiction section these days). Backstory: David made cupcakes with the girls last week and we didn't have frosting so he tried to improvise and I don't know what he did but the "frosting" he created ruined all of the cupcakes.
David: Well, we can't make that because we don't have those ingredients.
Zuzu: What do we need?
David: Cupcake mix and gummy treats.
Zuzu: Oh, yeah. We can't make that. You make horrible cupcakes with gross frosting.
David: (silent, looks offended)
Zuzu: (shrugs) I'm true.

Scene: In our kitchen.
Coco: I have to go to the bathroom! I need to pee and poop.
Me: Well, go! You don't want to have an accident.
Coco: I want someone to watch me.
Me: Coco, honey, people don't like to watch other people poop.
Zuzu: (laughing) Oh, Mom. You're so adorable when you say that.
lol.
ReplyDeleteI think maybe it's just us that don't like to watch others poop?
And also, I'm true ;)
I am so with coco, space gives me anxiety.
ReplyDeleteWe have bears and mountain lions here so I had to convince G they didn’t want to eat us because we eat crap food and would make their bellies hurt. So we’re made of meat, but not quality meat if G is involved in the convo.
I made a no conversations while someone is pooping rule. I just can’t anymore.
